He had to "fly up north to preach to the foreign mission field and preach to Yankees", and have to leave as soon as the invitation started. He was bouncing off of people coming forward during the invitation while making a beeline for the exit. What a disgrace. I hope he doesn't scold people ever again for leaving during the invitation when he himself is leaving for his preaching gig up north.<BR/><BR/>And Maurilio and church staff: I've said this before and I'll say it again: WHY DOES OUR GUEST RECEPTION REQUIRE THE ATTENDANCE OF MAC BRUNSON? How embarrassing to hear Jim Whitmire tell the guests in the service "We have to cancel our visitor's reception as our pastor has to leave right after the reception, so if you want to meet him you'll have to come back next week."<BR/><BR/>This shows the terrible mindset that our church staff has bought into...its all about Mac. He's the rockstar...if Mac isn't here, well we can't greet the visitors, can we? That's hogwash! Why doesn't or HUGE staff go over there and hold a visitor's reception whether Mac is here or not? Every single week we should have a guest reception. Come on Jim Smyrl - you're the 2nd in command, can't you make Mac see that we can have the reception without him?<BR/><BR/>Its amateur hour down at FBC Jax.FBC Jax Watchdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740366031265491559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-20514011855634517192008-08-10T00:10:00.000-04:002008-08-10T00:10:00.000-04:00Anon - you're right on about the comment calling m...Anon - you're right on about the comment calling me a "fundamentalist".<BR/><BR/>Just checking the blogosphere, the term "fundamentalist" or "fundies" are what the liberal elements of the baptist call those who are what we might call "conservatives" - that is those that believe in inerrancy and sufficiency of scripture, and exclusivity of Jesus Christ as mediator between man and God.<BR/><BR/>How revealing that Mac's FIRST, his VERY FIRST action, even before signing the $300k land deal or getting construction started on his $100k office suite...was to bring Maurilio on board at our church to begin the transition of our church.<BR/><BR/>And our lay leaders say "Mac is accountable to God, let's let God handle it." That's what they said at Shiloh and at Trinity.FBC Jax Watchdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10740366031265491559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-5096805579980866332008-08-09T10:49:00.000-04:002008-08-09T10:49:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384632623933772727.post-8824865939272736232008-08-09T10:26:00.000-04:002008-08-09T10:26:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
